Quick read

You hop a realm, you place a camp, and the fairytale skin sits on a gather-and-build week.

What kind of game is it?

Open-world survival craft with a portal-fantasy skin. You gather, you build, you share the realm if someone else is on. Realm-hopping is the trailer. The sitting is still a wall, a craft bench, and a threat that arrives after the pretty light.

Who is it for?

For players who like portals, a camp, and the supplies they carried through.
